I haven't tried (and really do not understand why there's anyone on
earth sticking with iso-8859-1 (except for wrongly configured editors
such emacs) but:
I know that the DB-installation instruction say that the DB should be
configured for encoding unicode, so that the java-strings <-> DB is
encoding proof for any encoding.
XML import is also bullet proof there: the encoding value is written
in the header.
Where you change encoding is at the front-end (delivery, hence input)
and there, I think you can change this right away, the re-encoding
happens in java in all cases, to any encoding.
My 2p.

1 - I already
have a good load of content, can I switch to UTF-8
without wrecking the wiki ?
As far as I understand, all involved actors must run
the same
encoding.
It is just a guess, but if your database and your XWiki run with
different encoding, URLs with characters like á, ñ, or / won't work.
